The counseling profession demands that the counselor possess a complete understanding of a wide variety of issues related to the practice of providing professional counseling services in school and clinical settings. This course offers focus on the guiding ethical standards of professional counseling organizations and credentialing bodies and their application, including focus provided on practice in school settings and the legal and ethical issues specific to this domain (e.g. FERPA), as well as to clinical mental health counseling practice. Students learn to apply and adhere to ethical and legal standards in counseling, gain understanding and skill in the application of an ethical decision-making model to legal and ethical dilemmas, and gain understanding of the legal rights of child and adult clients, and the counselor’s legal and ethical responsibility to each.
